Your extraordinary efforts have allowed us to raise critically necessary funds for our Parish which means so much to me and the parishioners of St. Joseph Church. Beyond the monetary impact, each year the raffle brings more parishioners of St. Joseph Church… These interactions with our parishioners help keep our community close and in touch with each other which is so important in current times.

Our experience with you was very positive and rewarding; our parish benefited in several ways: First, your donation of $5,800 was most welcomed! Second, many became engaged with our parish, parishioners and non-parishioners alike, wanting to support our ministries; third, your statement that the mailing campaign would clean up our mailing list with no effort on our part was spot on - Thank you!
